Ty is capable but last minute is difficult

Might have new hair soon baldy

Louis is a promoter with good intentions that's without doubt Guess the club are not going to say we tried xyz to make Ty feel like a last resort option, Ty to score double figures

Who else was available 😂

More injuries due to riders riding more meetings Witches already have a Scape goat for exiting the cup if they do exit that is

Can't you get killer in at 1?

How much for a promoters licence?

Ipswich stronger than last time with Mountain back and I believe Kyle and cam can take an R/R ride I think Sheffield by 10 which should set it up for a tense last heat decider at Foxhall

If you look at my thrown together teams each team will have a capable no.7 the problem this year was they tried it with 6 & 7 and it creates a divide across both leagues Respect everyone's opinion but I don't see why we need 3 leagues, we don't want doubling up to last any longer than it needs to The fixed race nights people seem happy with but if you lose your rider for the season because he got injured riding for another British club then that's got to hurt more than if it was for a foreign team

Hi mate I agree with you as well but we can only play our current cards, it will take around 5 years to build the sport here again imo to a level near to what Poland enjoy now Thanks mate, whatever happens let's hope they finally do something positive for the sport

Foamfence - I accepted your criticism and suggestions by offering you a response to counter act your opinion, like you did mine. Usually people only jump back stating what you just did when you have ran out of argument yourself But, I am just kidding, appreciate your input and opinion and that what happened with Holder snr and Holder jnr, I can see from your point of view why you would not like to see that type of rider coming over to race in what currently is a league for our next generation (and a few oldies). In my time in Speedway, I've met quite a lot of moaning Aussie riders, but they usually moan because they want the best and want to win - Holder Snr and Jnr is a different kettle of fish and my opinion on that one is not for this thread

Why did I not see this thread before, just posted my own ideas

It would only be called the championship, what is left would run similar to what the conference is now, if you say Buxton has two professional riders than that's a problem, this league should be semi professional at best Opening the doors but restricting to two commonwealth riders max will only include kiwi or Aussies not many speedway nations in the commonwealth These would be riders who aspire to become professional riders who will come here, work and also ride speedway to see if they make it or break it Many a young Aussie has left home for these shores to have a go at it, if some of our own riders had their attitude and determination we might have more world class riders Based on the opinion of two Aussies you can't think they are all the same, it's our own fault we don't have enough riders to go round so this is one quicker fix solution Over time you would like to think youth speedway will bring on more talent to fill most of these places

Try building a team to within a 30 point limit, it will not bankrupt any lower level team at all With doubling up being a major problem, would you prefer to open up the lower league to all nations or just our commonwealth brothers with team building restrictions to give our UK guys a fairer crack? UK speedway can't afford young riders a full time job in its present guise, a select few maybe who are marketing savvy Respect your opinion tho keep them coming

I tend to give politics a miss, potentially could the series sponsor them to get them over, football seems to bring young kids over, maybe dual passports I don't know... As for brexit ha who knows what will happen Some of the teams are a bit pie in the sky but I reckon Peterborough fans would love theirs We can all but dream

Rounding up or down averages would be a good idea if averages are kept for team building shame for someone to miss out because they are 0.17 over 7.43 is rounded to 7.5 8.17 to 8 and so on

Think any night other than the nights they race in Sweden or Denmark, let the poles have the top boys

That makes more sense, just rock up at the pit gate on the night 😁

Surely someone is available, I would offer but I don't want to do it ideally

The BSPA and or GoSpeed only have viewing figures from BT Sport no other updated demographics, if they were to get a title sponsor it would have to be from within the sport such as a fan etc And then the value isn't there, you couldn't expect to see enough to divide it by 12 teams and make much difference. It would be better to look at popular companies that may have customers who are a good target audience and also look at brands that are associated to young people Give title sponsorship to screwfix for free and have banners and flyers in all their stores to promote attending, insist on screwfix promoting regularly on social media Give free sponsorship to vanarama and do the same as above Maybe someone like Carabao energy to engage with a younger audience etc After two years and having a few examples to show future paid sponsors they might be in a better position

There is no value for sponsorship baldy, it would be better to offer it for free

Only way witches can afford going up other than attendances is improving commercially which I'm unsure if the current promotion understand fully to maximise the potential income Or pass it over to Guy Nicholls and let him have a go tho I understand he is building his business and the witches are not a powerful marketing tool

They came only because it was the play off final and wanted to be part of something special locally no other reason I hate to use the phrase glory hunting Perhaps they might get an extra 500 for the local derbies but fully expect crowd levels to fall back to normal levels unless more is done

😂😂😂😂 won't get that size crowd on a regular basis unfortunately

Isn't he around 5?
